Is this a decent daytona clone to start with?

I know a stinger nose as well as you Dane , and that red Daytona is a stinger nose ! How can I tell ? By the tweaked up ends of headlight doors . I have discussed this problem with Artie @ stinger , I gave him my input , [I did fiberglass for years ] he said he would look into it . On my nose I corrected the problem , had to pack the underside with glass , so when I ground into door , I had some material . Larry

Daytonaguy, thanks for the info. I had an idea that the guy was lying about not knowing if it was a matching numbers car and so on.  It's a shame you sold it for 7 grand.  It's amazing how much the prices went up

Ya, That (white vinyl top) car was bought by a couple on the coast of Oregon. It was a 1 owner and was # matching 318 car when I bought it for 1700.00 in 1996. Now it has a 440 in it.

I made that nose from scratch and formed it my self then made a 1 piece mold of it (as seen on top of the car). The mold warped and I chucked it. That is not a Stinger nose or light doors – The light doors on this car now (the one with the white vynle top) are someone's own concoction.

Good eye - I got that boat and made it a Daytona boat. I added the pointed nose and wing - I had a ball with that. I did not know that that boat would be a classic boat. There is a whole bulletin board for just the G3. I posted on it but I do not think they liked what I did to it.
